A large number of Millwall fans have taken to Instagram in a show of support for striker Jon Dadi Bodvarsson, following the striker's difficult start to the campaign.

Bodvarsson has started two of the Lions' previous five Championship matches, and only three league games in total this term, but came under some serious scrutiny after squandering a golden late opportunity in a recent draw with Cardiff City.

With the scores level at 1-1, the Icelandic international raced through on goal, although couldn't even hit the target - firing wide with the goal gaping.

Bodvarsson saw a nice effort save in last Wednesdays draw with former side Reading before missing another decent chance when Millwall drew blank against Birmingham last time out - once again failing to test the goalkeeper from Jed Wallace's corner in what is proving to be a tough spell for the 28-year-old.

Millwall quiz: Can you name the club's top goalscorer from the last 13 seasons?

 

 

It now means that the former Wolves and Royals frontman hasn't scored in 18 appearances for club and country this term, since netting in the Lions' victory over Huddersfield on the final day of last season.

Following the weekend draw at St Andrew's, Bodvarsson posted a photo of himself on Instagram, although there was no caption to go with it.

Here, we've been looking at what Millwall fans have been commenting on his post, and the general reaction towards Bodvarsson has been positive.
